Harry Potter: Veracity and Maelstrom (COMPLETED/ENDED)

Alex laughed. "No prime ministers here. You could be Minister of Magic..." He trailed off. "You wouldn't have much competition, it's become a very stressful job. What, with the Veracity stress and all." He shrugged offhandedly, walking into the Apothecary.
 
"Woah hold on." She froze for a moment, before trotting after him again. "What was that?!" She eyes him warily and concerned, her eyes flickering with doubt. "What's going on?"
 
Alex took in her concerned look. "Veracity. It's this group of wizards, mostly muggleborns, who think that that the wizards with 'pure' blood should be more generous with their magic. They're exposing this world to the muggles." He informed her. "There's really no stopping them now. They're everywhere. Hogwarts, the Ministry of Magic. Not all of them are bad, they just genuinely think they're doing the right thing. And some of them are doing it just out of spite." He sighed.
 
Angelica nodded. "I kinda get it, I guess...but I don't know why they'd want to tell muggles. I mean...my parents weren't all too great, and from what I understand, Wizards actually die earlier than normal muggles. So...what's the purpose?" She eyed the shop ahead, seemingly looking into a painful past. "No one is perfect, there are bad people on both sides. I don't get it."
 
Alex chose his words very carefully, not wanting to concern her or make her think too highly of Veracity. "Muggles die every day. From stupid, menial things. A cut that got infected. A disease. A car crash. If wizards were exposed, they could prevent these deaths. But then what's to stop muggles from abusing it? What if they really want a new car? Or house? Or a million dollars? There are millions of benefits, but wizards don't like being used. Even less than muggles. If the wizarding world is exposed, we'll fall apart. Turmoil. Chaos." He took a deep breath, eyes distant. "It's scary because so little is known about Veracity. Nobody knows who the leader is. How many wizards are involved. The ultimate goal. Nobody but that one guy who is so good at staying hidden that not even the Minister of Magic himself can find him."
 
Angelica shook her head, her mind whirling as she took in the new information. She took a deep breath before responding. "Why don't we talk about something else." She stared at the sky for a moment, before turning to regard Alex. "How did you acclimate from muggle world to the magic one?"


(I'm gonna go to sleep soon, just a warning, it's really late here...)
 
"It was hard. Always is for muggleborns, or anyone who wasn't really raised around magic. But after a year or two, you meet some great people, excel at what you're good at. Some of the teachers aren't great, but it's interesting. So do you have any idea what house you'll be Sorted into?" He asked, changing the subject quickly.
 
Before seeing a sea of people washing through Ollivander's the girl's eyes widened. She was enjoying the fact that she was enjoying hearing about this sport. She finally linked to what the bat was "Ohhh... so is the bat used by beaters? I mean when was looking through my mother's stuff I came across it and I quite liked it and was trying to figure out what it actually was" she grinned "However indeed I am interested in this sport.. any peaks my interest and one with flying brooms... the more exciting it gets." She looked through the window at Ollivander's and saw the crowd that gathered and decided to sit one out for a few minutes just till the shop clears. Otherwise if she went in she would have a fit from the lack of oxygen in there so she simply waited and continued the quidditch conversation, one she clearly enjoyed. "So to try out, when can I do so?"

Jórik Aríelsson Having just arrived at Diagon alley, he was being rushed to get everything he needs, though, by the time came he'd gotten most of the stuff he needed besides what was in the store with a group of kids standing out of it talking about... Quidditch? Walking up he'd pant heavily, "I-I need to know... What this store sells... P-Please?" in between every few words he'd let out a deep exhale of breath as he tried to stabilize his breathing from all the running. His dragon egg sitting in the open, though, no one else seemed to pay attention to it as apparently there was a shop that sold dragon-egg statues.



Katherine Burke She smiled as she checked off her list the very last object on her list, "And- Done!" she bounced up and down happily letting out a small squeak before reaching up and grabbing her fire-belly toad with both hands and looked at him, "I'm so excited Pip! We'll finally have a home... A real home..." he nuzzled her nose with the toad who returned the nuzzle before she placed it back on top of her head and started moving around quietly just enjoying the view of Diagon Alley now.

As the girl heard a boy as if he just ran the marathon of his life she turned and smiled nicely "Uhmm apperently wands.... but I wouldn't go in there right now if I were you. You look in need of oxygen and surely ain't found in there" she grinned. "You okay?" Alyssa was concerned to how deep he was inhaling.

Jórik Aríelsson "Y-Yeah... I'm fine.... Just... In a rush... I have everything except my wand..." it was obvious that he was recovering his breath as he looked at the girl who'd addressed him then look over her shoulders, "What's going on in there?"
 
"Even I have everything settled, I'm waiting for the shop to clear out so I can find my wand in peace" she shrugged "Well nothing but look.." she pointed as it was filled till the door with young witches and wizards. "For me I am waiting till that clears cause I ain't going in there" since she was claustrophobic, even just seeing the situation gave her a fit.
 
Jórik Aríelsson "Wait, Wand..." he started digging through one of the bags until he pulled out a small, thin, long box, "Oh! It seems I actually got this awhile back... I wonder why I didn't check it off my list..." pulling out his paper he'd check off getting a wand, "Well... It appears I'm actually done..." he looked around for a moment before looking back at them, "I have no idea as to where to go now, So I'll just chill with you guys for a bit."
 
She couldn't help but let out a small chuckle "Wow you really need to calm down man.. I mean and I thought I was excited about this new world of mine" she grinned and examined the box "First year as well I assume? May I see it?"
 
Rufus wakes up late in the morning. He has finished making summaries of this years school books and made some lessons for first years if they hear of him. He walks down in his small rented appartment and begins to make breakfast for himself. This was his first summer on his own. He made some eggs and bacon and noticed that an Owl has delivered him the Hogwarts letter. He read the letter and there was nothing new in it. He had already the books but needed some new ingrediënts for his brewings. He finised his breakfast and took his suitcase which was already packed. He walked out his Appartement which was next to Diagon Alley.


He went to the shops he needed to go and found everything he needed. He saw some other new students and greeted the ones he already knew. He saw also persons of this Veracity. He didn't like them. The Wizards and Whiches didn't go in hiding for the fun.
 
Jórik Aríelsson "Oh, alright." he smiled and handed her his wand. Though, as she'd take it the wand's small crystal orb would fill with black mist.
 
She took the wand in hand and examined it, but as she saw the mist form within the crystal she frowned "Does the mist symbolize anything or?"
 
Jórik Aríelsson Well, it's phoenix feather core... I think the mist represents the wands judgment as to who is or isn't worthy of using it.... But that's the first time I've seen it myself... It remains clear when I hold it."

"Oh I see," she carefully handed him the wand back as not to drop it and looked over to the wand shop again awaiting for the shop to clear out. "I'm not worthy then" she sighed dramatically but of course she was kidding, she figured the fact that a witch/wizard had his own specific wand.
 
Angelica smiled excitedly once again, speaking excitedly. "I really hope I get sorted into Ravenclaw, that would be amazing! I'm going to do my best, I really wanna do well here." She smiled happily, her eyes seeming to sparkle in amazement. "Thank you so much again, by the way, you've been so helpful!"

Ruger continued walking down Diagon Ally after collecting his books and his other necessity's and takes a quick glance at his list


"Ah, looks like all I have to do now is get my wand." He mumbled, walking past a shady looking character heading a nearby allyway.


Man, something seems up with some of these people walking around. Now I think I should be even more careful with where I go.


As he walks past multiple shops heading to the Ollivanders. Glancing to his left he sees "Florean Fortiscue's Ice Cream Parlour." And on the right a store called "Gambol and Japes Wizarding Joke Shop." And after Ruger read that he chuckled.


"I might head there after I get my wand." He smirked


Walking in front of Ollivanders wand shop, Ruger sees a huge line leading all the way outside.


Well I guess this guy is really popular. I'll just wait


He thinks to himself as he sits down on a nearby bench placing his belongings beside him. He glares over across the street and sees a store called "Weasly Wizard Wheezes." As he stops for a second and thinks real hard on that name and whispers to himself "Weasly? Where have I heard that name before." As he glances over to see two kids sitting next to each other watching the shop.


They must be waiting on the store to clear as well. But Weasly, I've heard that name before, Gahh my memory isn't serving me well this time it seems.


As he sits and quietly analyzes the rest of the shops he didn't see beforehand.

Eliza strolled through diagon alley, staring down at her letter. Another year at hogwarts, another year of learning magic. Her grin widened, and she observed the shops on the street as she walked. In front of her was Ollivanders and she smiled in delight. She remembered getting her wand, that was magical in and of itself. As she moved, she spotted a young boy sitting down, moving down the streets she stopped, moving over to him. "First year? You need some help?" She smiled kindly at him, rolling her shoulders back slightly.

Ruger looked up at the girl and after a small pause


"Uh, yeah, first year. And I think I'm all good for now. I'm just waiting on the shop to calm down a bit because all I have left is my wand." He says glaring past the girl.


"Is it always this busy?" He asks with a smirk
